Comment(by Maiku):

 It appears that Yahoo has no distinction between "Busy" and "Away"
 statuses and the prpl maps between the two based on what the status
 implies. I'm thinking what's happening is that because the prpl defines
 Yahoo's custom messages as "Away", it's failing to set custom messages
 when busy (which as said above is mapped to "Do Not Disturb").

 Would it be acceptable to handle that case and make "Busy" and "Away"
 custom messages do the same thing with respect to the Yahoo protocol?
 Alternately, would it be better to do away with either the "Busy" or
 "Away" statuses in the prpl?
